Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit 8621. This high-quality connecting rod kit is designed as a reliable replacement for heavy-duty applications. Manufactured from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 material, the rods are case-hardened to 58-62 Rc for exceptional durability. The advanced design features side scalloping and vent slots to minimize high-rpm bearing race distortion. Double-forged for improved grain flow and dimensional consistency, the rods are shot-peened and double-honed to handle heavy loads. The small ends are double-drilled for enhanced lubrication and cooling to the wrist pin bearing, crucial in high-stress applications. Thrust washers and crank pin bearings are silver-coated for superior lubricity and performance. Complete kit includes rod, crank pin, crank pin bearing, top-end bearing, and thrust washers. Big End Bearing (mm): 34x42x20. Big End Bore (mm): 42.00. Big End Width (mm): 19.95. Center to Center (mm): 103.50. Pin Diameter (mm): 34.00. Pin Length (mm): 60.80. Small End Bearing (mm): Bushing. Small End Bore (mm): 18.00. Cross-Reference OEM Part Numbers: YAMAHA: 5TA-11651-00-00, YAMAHA: 5XD-11651-00-00. Part Number: 56-911.HR.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit 8621
The Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit 8621 is engineered for demanding applications, providing a durable and reliable replacement part. Constructed from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 material, these connecting rods undergo a case-hardening process to achieve a hardness of 58-62 Rc, ensuring exceptional strength and wear resistance. The innovative design incorporates side scalloping and vent slots, which are crucial for minimizing distortion in the bearing races at high RPMs.
Further enhancing its robustness, the rods are double-forged to optimize grain flow and ensure consistent dimensions. They are also shot-peened and double-honed, making them highly capable of withstanding significant loads. The small ends feature double-drilled holes to improve lubrication and cooling for the wrist pin bearing, a vital feature in high-stress environments. For superior performance and reduced friction, the included thrust washers and crank pin bearings are finished with a silver coating.
Key Features:
- Complete assembly includes rod, crank pin, crank pin bearing, top-end bearing, and thrust washers.
